I The Mikado Tea in the Court House last Wednesday night was something | unusual for Abbevilte and consequently j attracted a large crowd. The tea was in behalf of the Episcopal Church and | under the especial management of Miss Kato Calhoun and Mrs VV C Benet. Miss Calhoun'had chargi of the Chinese de partinent and Mrs. uenei mat 01 iui- u- ] freshmfrnts. It was a complete success. The amount realized from the sale of tea, Japanese curiosities and refreshments amounted to shout one hundred and fifteen dollars. Girls dressed in ( Eastern costumes served the purchas- ] ers. It was remarkable that our sweet Americau girls made such good looking ! Mongolians. Ail preseut appeared to have a most excellent time. The young 1 ladies dressed in Mongolian costumes were : Misses Sallie Calhoun, Marie * Calhoun, Kate Marshall, Ella Penny 1 AMamie Lawson, Jennie Zeigl ?r, Hannah Hemphill,Lucia Parker, Corrie McClung, 1 Edna Tuslett and Jennie Delph. I Tea, ice cream, cake, salads, lemonade s and various other things were offered for sale by these very nice "Jap" girls. \ j C? V. G. & C. K.

We have read with great interest the >ceedings of the Farmers' Convention Columbia, and we have entirely failed ace one single thing that was done to irance the agricultural interest of the ite. Wbile wo are in favor of farm\' clubs, yet we are not in favor of orlizing to discuss political questions, lich any fair minded man will have to mit they did. if the measures are card out as set forth in their resolutions, ir taxes will be increased instead of tting them down. If that is the na e of the great Farmers' Convention, i say disband at once, and let farmers d any other professions pull together dhav<fone grand end in view, and it is the advancement of the agrieul-al, financial and political interests of i State. The picnic given by the Millwav Lit iry Club on Friday last on liardlabor eek was a grand success. Fair maidis and brave young men gathered there that beautiful day to while away the ppy hours beneath some shady bower, aaley, Millway, Troy and Edgefield ire well repsesented and we have ver soen a prettier lot of young ladies thered togethered than those that atuled the picnic. Basket after basket len with all kind of delicacies, was ought by the ladies and we are indebtto them for a magnificent dinner, id ere the sun sank beneath the Weati sky, the crowd had turnod their :es homeward happy and contended or the days proceedings, and looking rward to pother which we hope will ce place soon. Mobb An<#k. Liowiidesville IjocaIh. There were quite a number of viftitoi in town last week attending the Sunda School Convention. They caino froi Elbert County, Georgia from Anderso C. H. and from all parts of this com: ty. All were seemingly pleased wit their visit. I hear that the entururisiner citizen r o of oar town, intend, at an early day, t erect a telephone line from here to th d<y>ot which will certainly be ft ver great convenience. Messrs. Speed & Turner will ope their drugs this week, their Pharmacia having been on the ground for inor than a week forming acquantance &c. Some persons in this section are no\ having an occasional taste of strawber rieg. Why is it, that so few people pro vide beds, from which this luscion fruit is gathered ? It ripens at a titn when fruit is very scarce and it there fore should be more generally cultivat ed. There is great complaint among tin planters in this vicinity because of th< bad stands of cotton, some are plowin; it up and planting over, by so doiuj they may "jump from the frying-pai into the fire," as the indications nov are, that the weather will be dry for i time, if so, the replanted cotton wil not come up till it rains and that niaj be too late for it to do much good. Mr. T. Baker will soon commenci building a store near to the one to bi occupied by Messrs. Speed & Turnei and will more his own goods into it an< will cliangc his present quarters, whicl is connected with his dwelling, into ar addition to his dwelling, thus givinj him more room. Dr. J. T. Baskin will soon comnienci to remodel the store-houso upon his lo ard have it ready to rent on reasonabh terms. He intends also to repair hi; dwelling upon the same lot. The Savannah Valley railroad has reached tho incorporate limits of oui town< Within three or four iniles dowr the ryad, there are seventeen trestle; tho ^building of which has bonsumei much time. From here lo Andersor C. II. there is comparatively no trestlinj and tho road will be rapidly built tc that point, which it is expected to bt reached by the first of July. By the way several annual railroad convention* have been held at this place and al every one of them our citizens, not onlj of the town but in the surrounding country bestircd themselves to makt the stay of all who attended those conrentionions, delegates and visitors, at pleasant as possible besides supplying "the wants of the inner man" "w.thoul money and without price. (A few preferred to stay at the hotel and pay theis way.) The last annual railroad convention (May 12th) was held at Andersor C. H. and we hear that those who attended that convention, there being nc organized effort to provide for theui, had to look out for themselves and hac it not. been for the kindness of a few friends, they would have had to do one of two things, either go to the Hotel 01 fast. As Lowndesville has bountifully ^none can deny this) furnished everything needful for several railroad conventions the delegates from this place, had been "sorter" holding off for a day or two, preparing for the expected feasl *t Anderson, a feast that would have delighted the taste of an Epicure, but alas ilas f We mean by this a public dinnei juch, at least as was always provided al Lowndesville. Those from LowndesvilU are very thankful indeed for tho kindness shown them by personal friends. TltOUPK. Magnolia Ijcaveu. " i.

Then he called to his wife tha the judgment bad come, when she as sured him that it it was only the trail coming up from McCormick. It is no* admitted by all that the Savannah Val .1: . ,r I Icy railroad has supplied a long fell want of this section of tho county. H Kven thoso. who did not willingly pny y the tax arc delighted every time tho n whistle sounds. n Hurrah for tho town of Abbeville I*, is to lie hoped that aim will get a h railroad some how, from some place. Magnolia has no ohjoetiort to Abbeville j, gutting the proposed n?*w road provided 0 she constructed it insomo other way than v by taxing the people along the line. y | Our people have had quite enough experience in this matter and many nro n determined to resist a repetition of the imposition for all time to couie. c, Yes the poor farmer must foot all the bills, lie pays the freight on the mercliint goods. Pays his clerk ^hire and v store rent, and town tax. The revenue tax and other expenses. Gives the merchant a clear profit and pays a tax to build a railroad for the town. So wonder the country farmer is poor, lie feeds and clothes every body anil goes half fed and clad himself and ! has no one to blame but himself. I L]!
